"I loved how comfortable these shoes were right away. I did not need to break them in even with my wide feet. I also liked that it felt like I was standing on my heels too, not just the balls of my feet. By the end of the day though, I could barely walk in them my feet hurt so bad. I don't normally wear heels of any kind so it might just be my feet. Since so many others can wear them all day I think it is just my feet! I will try some inserts at the balls of my feet and maybe not wear them ALL day. I won't stop wearing them because of that I will just adjust how I wear them."
Pros: Stable, Stylish
Yes, I recommend this product.

"These shoes are high quality and comfortable. My only complaint is that the overlapping tongue section seems to short and my wide foot splits the section to the part under the buckle that shouldn't be seen actually pokes out through the buckle. I'll have to figure that out to make it work..."

"These shoes are the most comfortable dress shoes I have ever owned. They are sturdy and have padding around the ankle area to add protection from blisters or rubbing. They are also very stylish! The leather looks great and the price is far cheaper than other stores. I would highly recommend these to anyone."
Pros: Stylish, Comfortable, Stable, Cushioning

"These shoes have to be the most comfortable shoes I have gotten in a long time. The heel looks so much higher than they feel. I am able to wear them all day without any discomfort, and I am on my feet most of the day. They feel like you are wearing a bedroom slipper. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a classic looking shoe. They are great with dress slacks as well as jeans. Enjoy! I only wish I could find them in black!!!!! A size 6 is hard to find!"

"These shoes feel great from the hand touch to the comfy foot touch. Perfect heal size and fit my foot perfect. Have yet to wear them for more than a try on because not in love with the look. I bought both colors and will keep one regardless just because of the comfort potential. Planned on keeping both but since I wont be returning to work next year, i won't need both pairs unless they turn out to be as comfy when wearing all day as I hope. Worth your effort and sale price. Beautiful, quality shoe."

"Very impressed with the look of this shoe. I have not worn shoes with much of a heal for several years due to foot surgeries. This shoe is very comfortable even for all day wear. The first day I wore these shoes I walked a block or two in downtown Columbus with no discomfort at all. I am very happy with my selection!"
